It's a Boy!

Morning! My son and his gf had a baby shower to attend and asked me to make the card and here's what I came up with. I love how it turned out and this image is just the cutest! I added funflock to the cloud to make it nice and fluffy. Coloured it up with my spectrum noir markers.

DSC#45 - Sunshine & Summertime

I'm late! Ugh! Story of my life this summer lol it's just been so hot that crafting even takes to much energy! The storms are coming through now and it has cooled off considerable. Off with the AC and open up those windows!! We have a new challenge at Digitally Sweet today! We're all about "Sunshine and Summertime" with Template Dreams. Myself and Ali both used the same kit, "water everywhere" so be sure to see the different takes on it. I took these photos of our daughter a couple weeks ago on the beach by our house and absolutely love them. She looks so grown up (she'll be 13 in Oct) and so beautiful. This was the night of her friends Gr 8 graduation and we took advantage of it and had her hair done. Just a moment to treasure as she moves into her last year of public school in Sept. Hard to believe. Both our kids will graduate in a year! One from Gr 8 and the other from Gr 12!

LM #148 - Country Charm

Hi everyone!! Happy Sunday! Our challenge at Lasting Memories this week is "Country Charm"! We're challenging you to use country colours (could be a country palette OR your countries colours) AND we want to see a charm on there to! I went a little further and went with a whole country aura. These are photos from when my daughter took riding lessons 2 yrs ago. Unfortunately, after a bad experience with the teacher and being thrown twice, she's done riding for the time being. She was a natural though, so I really hope one day she'll go back to it.

Come on over and join us at LM and show us your "Country Charm"! We'll see ya there! Thanks for stopping by!

DSC #44 - Anything Goes w/Bright Colours

Hi everyone! TGIF!! Our challenge this week at Digitally Sweet is 

"Anything Goes with Bright Colours"

I couldn't resist these photos my daughter took of herself a couple weeks ago. We went to her friends gr 8 graduation, so I took advantage of that and had her hair done and then did a little photo shoot down by the water. On the way home from the grad, she grabbed my camera and started snapping shots of herself. She certainly had fun!

Come over and join us at DSC and show off your bright colours!
